Bruno Mars is Bruno Mars. Let’s begin!
Conservative Muslim country Indonesia’s West Java has had enough of sexually explicit lyrics and adult content. So it did the obvious; Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You”, Bruno Mars’ “Versace on the Floor” and Ariana Grande’s “Love Me Harder” will not be played at the daytime after getting under the skin of the broadcasting body. These songs can be broadcast between 10 pm and 3 am now.
Indonesia is a conservative country and recently even got a Gay Muslim comic banned from Instagram (which Instagram denies).
Meanwhile, artist Bruno Mars took no time and mocked the ban in a way only he can!
Taking to social media he pulled the leg of fellow artist Ed Sheeran calling him ‘sexual deviant’ saying:
WTF! I was poppin in Indonesia! Then here comes Ed Sheeran with his sick, perverted lyrics, gettin us all pinched! Thanks Ed. Thanks a lot. I’m in love with the shape of you?” Really Ed Sheeran? You monster! & don’t even get me started on “Thinking Out Loud.” Have u no shame?
Bruno Mars also reminded Indonesia about his wholesome hits and told the country to not put him in the league of Ed Sheeran:
Dear Indonesia, I gave u the wholesome hits “Nothin On You,” “Just The Way You Are,” & “Treasure.” Don’t lump me in with that sexual deviant.
“I’m in love with the shape of you?” Really @edsheeran ? You monster! & don’t even get me started on “Thinking Out Loud.” Have u no shame?

We get it, Bruno Mars, what you just did in those tweets 😉
But you also get to share the honours with Ariana Grande! So Cheers.
Fans of both artists already know how well they gel together and we are just waiting for a response from Ed:
You know you’ve made it when you can hire Ed Sheeran to sing you Happy Birthday! 🍾🥂 #ExtraForever! #HappyBrunoMarsDay! pic.twitter.com/2HPHl9bW9t
